Touhing poems from the movie " In Her Shoes"

One Art   (by Elizabeth Bishop)

 

The art of losing isn't hard to master;so many things seem filled with the intentto be lost that their loss is no disaster.

Lose something every day. Accept the flusterof lost door keys, the hour badly spent.The art of losing isn't hard to master.

Then practice losing farther, losing faster:places, and names, and where it was you meant to travel.None of these will bring disaster.

I lost my mother's watch. And look! my last, ornext-to-last, of three loved houses went.The art of losing isn't hard to master.

I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster,some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent.I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.

--Even losing you (the joking voice, a gestureI love) I shan't have lied. It's evidentthe art of losing's not too hard to masterthough it may look like (Write it!) like disaster. (閱讀全文)

Three Cups of Tea

我不常買書,卻常看書.學校圖書館有些還不錯的書,也有些很新的書,

我借書有時是看書評或因別人推薦,但很多時候是憑直覺....

這本" 三杯茶"就是憑直覺挑的書,不過卻是很棒的一本書

今天看完了這本"Three Cups of Tea" (中文版),感動 !

About Movies

 今天早上看HBO--"The American President" 是很久以前的片子了(1995),但很好看。

尤其現任總統終於出來針對另一位總統候選人一些無謂的攻擊做出回應時,真是說得太好了!

原文照錄:

He is interested in two things and two things only:

making you afraid of it and telling you who's to blame for it. 

那就是總統的高度!

 

另外一部電影也顯示了總統的高度--"Invictus" (打不倒的勇者),

描述Nelson Mandela,

雖無從得知他實際上如何當總統,但是在電影中,他做了總統真正該做的事--

To unite and inspire the nation

 

許多人也做不到的事情是-原諒

"Mandela could spend thirty years in a tiny cell, and come out ready to forgive the people

who put [him] there".

下面這首詩是在獄中鼓舞著他的詩句: (Invictus)

 

Out of the night that covers me,

Black as the pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever gods may be

For my unconquerable soul.

 

 

In the fell clutch of circumstance

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

Under the bludgeonings of chance

My head is bloody, but unbowed.

 

 

Beyond this place of wrath and tears

Looms but the Horror of the shade,

And yet the menace of the years

Finds and shall find me unafraid.

 

 

It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishment the scroll,

I am the master of my fate:

I am the captain of my soul.
